Why would I want to turn "Data Sharing off?
The health report says I can do this, but doesn't say why I would want to do it! Please tell me.

Firefox Health Report (FHR) is designed to provide you with insights about your browser's stability and performance and with support tips should you experience issues, such as high crash rates or slow startup times. Mozilla collects and aggregates your data with that of other Firefox users and sends it back to your browser so you can see how your Firefox performance changes over time. This data includes, for example: device hardware, operating system, Firefox version, add-ons (count and type), timing of browser events, rendering, session restores, length of session, how old a profile is, count of crashes, and count of pages. FHR does not send Mozilla URLs that you visit.
We use the data sent through FHR to provide users with FHR's functionality, such as helping you analyze and address performance issues with your browser. We also use what we learn from the FHR data in the aggregate to make Firefox better. You can choose to turn data sharing off.
Also see the "How do I view the raw data collected?" section of the following article.
Other than any data you may pick out from the previous response that you don't want shared, the only other reasons I can think of that you may wish to turn it off is 1) you are on a very slow or dial-up connection and it's slowing down your other data Rx/Tx - though I think it unlikely or 2) You have a very tight Data Usage Allowance from your ISP and are nearing the limit.
